We're all pretty decent folks, a bit insane- in good fun- so have fun!


Oh one last thing

under any circumstances take an IOU from the other pirates!
you've been warned!

Comic book looks great, btw...

I used to be a comic book artist, back in the 80's. We did an independant underground punk rock comic book called "The Boogins". http://www.lastgasp.com/d/689/ (That's my cover art)

Cool - didn't know that Opas (although I did know of your artistic talents).


Y'know, with the sense of humour and artistic abilities (some of us, anyways) around here, we should really consider doing a collaborative Toadfish webcomic.

I made a thread for that here (http://toadfishmonastery.com/forum/index.php?topic=739.0).

Opsanus, Oi ! That looked like a lot of work ! I've been an art student most of my life . My illustrating skill is the pits from 2+ decades of non-practice but I certainly would like to give it a try again for a comic .

BC- mine's pretty rusty now, too. Especially after blonking my eyes out on computers. But if you'll give it a go, I might, too.

I did that cover on a scratchboard. It's two punk rockers making out while below them, under layers of sediment, lies a skeleton. I called it "Forever: Cutaway View". Ah, those skeptical years...

BTW, did you get my last private message? RSVP.

Wow!  What a welcome..thanks mateys!

I have been researching pirates a great deal over the last year and a half due to the comic book I wrote.  I have to tell ya...I am hooked!  I even got to visit Blackbeard's Tower in St. Thomas!  Great Fun!

Please be on the lookout for more info on my pirate comic book, as soon as I figure out the right thread.  I don't annoy the masses but a pirate's gotta brag somewhere...

One place we like to talk about our various artistic projects is here: http://toadfishmonastery.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=18&board=37.0

But I'm sure the Pirate Cove would be interested in your comic book, as well.
